Iwa Young is convinced that Dane Parsons is just like all the other surfers and that his great love is the ocean.
Two fearless warriors battle the elements in a race to be at one with the very thing they love. Will they find a way to align their passions and discover a world that is better with the other in it? One has a rule to not date a surfer…the other…never turn your back on the sea.
It is obvious how much Sara Ackerman loves the island with the care and attention to detail in the plot and character arcs as readers journey into the heart of Maui. I felt like I was right there with them and now I need to book a trip to Maui.
The exploration is more explicit between characters that may include dirty talk, detailed intimate moments, or suggested desire of what they would like to do with their partner. This moment might also be expressed before, during, or after intimacy, spicy e-mails, letters, or texting.
Readers can expect multiple detailed scenes or momentsย that leave no doubt there is a medium level of heat.
Thank you in advance to Harper Collins for the advance galley copy for an honest and fair review. All thoughts and opinions are my own. I can’t wait to read more from Sara Ackerman!

Electric Oh! is getting back together to perform. Will their reunion be filled with drama, or provide new headlines for the tabloids?
After all these years can they still create that “magic” on stage and connect with fans?
Micah and John were once the best of friends and crafted unforgettable music with powerful when lyrics filled with passion, chemistry and raw feelings.
When the foundation in a relationship fractures it takes time repair and a lot of work to rebuild the splintered layers. If Micah and John can learn to trust again, be honest with themselves and each other about what really happenedโฆtheyโll discover an unexpected gift. A love far greater than either imagined. That is if they can survive a few days at sea.
There is plenty of rock-n-roll behind the scenes drama witty banter. Lots of flirty chemistry and great world building with characters that stay with you after you finish the book because their friendships are tested through unexpected challenges and obstacles making this a great read for your summer book adventures!
A scorchin hot read with multiple intimacy scenes, some may be โextra spicyโ and/or graphic. Thank you Berkley Romance and Berkley Publishing for the advance reader copy for review consideration. All opinions are my own.

๐๐ผ๐ฎ๐น๐ถ๐ฒ by Michae Marie is a college, age gap, hockey romance between a coach and athlete! Add in that itโs forbidden,
spicy, angsty + no third act break up – you are not going to want to miss out on this book!
Michae Marie also has a fabulous playlist (see below) for readers who want to add a little something extra to their reading experience.
When Luke Holloway had a career ending injury the last thing on his mind was coaching ice hockey. What will he do when his mom’s dear friend offers him an opportunity to stay connected to the sport that he loves?
Lennon “Killer” Kilcrease has potential to be something great if she can just stop overthinking when she plays. Maybe the new coach will be able to figure out her weaknesses and help her level-up her game.
This story takes “all is fair in love and hockey” to a whole new level in a story that breaks the cardinal rule. No fraternization between players and coaches.
Luke and Lennon have everything to lose if they break the rule. For two people about to discover love in the most unexpected place their happy-ever-after has a warning list a mile long.

This spicy read has exploration is more explicit between characters that may include dirty talk, detailed intimate moments, or suggested desire of what they would like to do with their partner. This moment might also be expressed before, during, or after intimacy, spicy e-mails, letters, or texting. Readers can expect multiple detailed scenes or moments that leave no doubt there is a medium level of heat.

Book Quote Tease…
I was here to tell a story, not drool over the six-foot-two slab of hockey-playing perfection.ย
A six-foot-two slab of perfection who wanted me to disappear as much as he wanted to touch me.
What you will find….
๐ Brooding Captain
๐ค Blacklisted filmmaker
๐ Hidden career-ending injury
๐ค Strong and ambitious FMC
๐ Quiet stoic captain with a hidden vulnerable side
๐ค Enemies to Lovers
Is Captain Jack Vignier the warrior that everyone thinks he is?
What will happen when Lily Sutton discovers a secret that could destroy the star hockey player? Will ruin his career to further her own?
In order to deliver the content she’ll need to obtain a level of trust but when she realizes that there is much more at stake what will she do?
If you love an off and on the ice hockey romance this has plenty of banter, lots of chemistry, tension, and excitement this has that and more.
This spicy read has exploration that is more explicit between characters that may include dirty talk, detailed intimate moments, or suggested desire of what they would like to do with their partner. This moment might also be expressed before, during, or after intimacy, spicy e-mails, letters, or texting.ย Readers can expect multiple detailed scenes or momentsย that leave no doubt there is a medium level of heat.
